    I'd rather not say.

    The second worst was probably falling down the stairs and landing face first on the dance floor in a disco bar.
    In between songs so that everybody got to witness and hear it.

    Ah when young and vain.


    My uncle lives in America, and apparently the houses aren't built like here, it's easy to break the walls etc. My cousin was drunk one night and instead of turning right into the bathroom he turned left and fell down the stairs, and put his head out through the wall. I'm sure it was very serious at the time but I think it was pretty funny.

    Serious question. Does everyone here floss their teeth before brushing?

    Flossing is for US tv show characters.

    In all seriousness, I couldn't use flossing tape as my teeth are very close together.

    Then I got the electronic flosser that I have.

    The difference it has made to my dental hygiene and the appearance of my teeth is amazing.

    Why flossing is important (and regular teeth cleaning!)

    You can get cheaper, waterpix are just as good, I asked for a waterpix as an xmas present and ended up with the item I linked to.

    I've crap teeth, and one in particular that was hard to clean and was almost permanently stained, and I changed from a regular toothbrush to an electric toothbrush and that flosser above.

    The difference in my teeth is amazing, before I'd get them cleaned and a month later the hard to clean tooth would be nearly black (I'm a smoker), three months after the new routine, I'm looking in the mirror amazed at how clean my teeth look.

    I brush, then floss, then briefly brush with the exfoliator, mouthwash.

    Has anyone ever tried to mouthwash still drunk and down the shot instead of swishing it?

    I was at the dentist earlier in the week, a new dentist, and she said no that you should always floss before brushing because it takes the plaque off and then any leftovery bits will be brushed away much more easily. She also gave me a lesson on flossing because I've been doing it wrong. I wouldn't push the guns down with it.

    My teeth have never felt so good.

    Next thing I'm doing is buying an electric toothbrush.
